How do we count our anonymity rating?

You PC anonymity rating allows to quickly show all the vulnerabilities and flaws in your defenses. We divide these flaws into three approximate groups: serious, moderate, and minor.

The serious flaws group consists of unmistakable efforts on your part to hide or change your actual IP address or its leak. You may reveal yourself due to bad anonymity techniques or their inaccurate usage. It does not always mean that someone will surely know your IP, but it means that there is at least a reason to track you and try to know it. This group consists of Tor, anonymizers, proxies, WebRTC leaks, and DNS differences.

The moderate flaws group involves indirect signals that do not reveal univocal efforts on your part to hide yourself, but they are alarming. These are various browser heading, local time difference between your city and your system, language difference between your region and your system. It allows to know with a high degree of probability that you are trying to hide your actual location.

The minor flaws group consists of issues that are worth your attention and fixing: blacklisting your IP address, using plugins that are essentially separate applications which may trigger data leakage (Flash, Java, ActiveX), and deactivated DoNotTrack browser option which prevents websites from tracking you.

Upon detecting any of these anonymity leaks, your system will penalize you with:

Go to your control panel and open your network connections. Right click on the active connection and select properties. Scroll down till you see Internet Protocol Version 4 and select it then hit the properties button. At the bottom you can select the button for Use the following DNS server addresses. That is where you can add in your new DNS addresses.

On your color scale of anonymity at top right where it shows anonymity percentage and color, which color and % is better? Is an anonymity rating of 51% colored in red better or worse than a rating of 61% colored in orange? In other words, if I were to get a rating of 100%, would that mean I am completely anonymous or not at all anonymous?

There are several options of anonymity we consider at our site. If you have 100% rating – it’s good. But there are some other options which can be causes of information leak. We’re going to add them to the site soon.

Well, I find it funny that the use of 3 different languages in the browser makes you suspect I am concealing my IP. No, it’s my true IP and location that is showing. (Or do I get the minus for the system clock being a few minutes slow? :P) For a translator, it’s normal to live a multilingual life not only online …

Hello,
when will whoer.net check for IPv6 anonymity? When IPv6 is enabled, whoer.net doesn’t detect it nor warns which could bring users in uncomfortable situations who really depends on a proper network configuration. This issue could get worse in the future because IPv6 is growing and the first anonymity services already started to roll out IPv6. The second problem: proper anonymous IPv6 is a little more compliciated to set up because there is a considerable chance to have the unmasked public IPv6 attached to the local network interface which could get leaked by poorly configured browsers and proprietary software. I think this issue should be addressed too.

My anonymity level was 80%, then I disabled all that was asked to be disabled, but now the Anonymity is saying N/A. And when I wanted to send message to you guys the system said that i should enable my java in other to be other to send the message. Please help.
Thank,
Len.

i just wanna know if it’s advice able to use VPN for payments system after deactivating and blocking some plugins I get 70% anonymity, leaving the 30% to system and Internet time difference, is it ideal to use VPN For payment system in the absence of socks5/proxy?

Dear Mr Whoer
Thank you for this excellent site. I’m so easily confused; why do I test 100 percent not using anything, but as I add VPN, TOR, the score drops into the red?
Seems bass ackward to me. @_@

mr whoer please can you tell me how i can hide that i am using vpn so i could get in those sites that do not accept vpn, e.g match and zoosk and i am also using your vpn which i paid for but i am having issue with it when it on no page load at all . thanks you and waiting for your swift response , and one more thing which is better vpn or the web socks and will whoer be selling socks anytime soon

I am at 100% anon, but the problem is my local time says EDT but system time says EST. Without it the zones matching I am unable to do what I want to do. So is there anyway I can let both my system and local time say EDT? I am also using vpn, then vmware, input socks 5 in firefox. I am also aware that it is java script that is leaking my zone, but I need it to surf websites. Plz help

Hi,
I’m getting this message and only 70% anon…
Languages different: The language set in your system and/or browser differs from the language of your IP address country. You are possibly trying to hide yourself by anonymity means.
I have changed the system languages to US (I think), changed the clock etc but still getting this…
How do i set the browser language (Chrome) and the system in case i have missed something?
Do you have a link to a page or step by step instructions for what i might be missing please? I’m on Windows 10.
Thanks in advance

I have socks5 running and vpn running…
Why doesnt my ip for for socks5 appear on whoer but some other ip address instead? Though it’s still from the same country, but not the ip address of the socks that i selected?

I mean under the #your Anonymity is 100 I have 100% Anonymity.. instead of High it is Medium, i have also changed my Dns and other config… also Master how can i change my Host-name: and why is Whois showing on my IP Address and hostname.????? Thank you.

IP addresses different
Our interactive checks have revealed that you are not the one you pretend to be. Your actual IP address differs from the one you show. Please use proper system and VPN settings or disable Flash/Java/ActiveX/WebRTC in your browser.

If you are using Android you will have to go to time date and disable the auto time zone. Then find the time zone you want and pick it. Usually gmt will give you 100% with Java off wrc off Firefox browser private browsing on.

Hi, I have a little problem with my Firefox,before i used sock 5 which gave me 100% but this morning i installed ipvanish which i wanted to use with viscosity but i realized that ipvanish did not work with viscosity, i uninstall the ipvanish in order for me to use my sock 5 which gave me 100% before. after i uninstall the ipvanish, i cant get my 100% again and this is what it shown me..Proxy detected The majority of proxies are not anonymous, they are detectable and able to track your traffic. We do not recommend using them for anonymity. Any solution please.

I tried checking my anonymity and is 70% and it tells me this”.The language set in your system and/or browser differs from the language of your IP address country. You are possibly trying to hide yourself by anonymity means.” I have changed the system time and time zone to match with the local time and the zime zone all matched.I checked my computer and my computer language and the ip language are all the same.I have disabled any plugins I know of just to get 100% but still I dont get 100% .What can I do? Because I have tried all I can.

i wanted to be using whoer vpn on my samsung S7 edge…i downloaded the openvpn for android already,but there was no where,where my email as required so that the configuration files can be sent to me so that i can import it,pls help me out

Mr whoer,
Please am having difficulties with the fifty five percent rate of my anonymity.
Kindly assist on clues or tips to reduce my anonymity rate from the aforesaid level to the barest minimum…..????????
I eagerly await your reply at earliest Guru Whoer………

my anonymity percentage is 70% and i was told that my system time is different from ip address time zone, please i have tried all the time zones in my system yet no increase in anonymity. my ip address time zone is in GMT-0400 EDT while my system time zone is in UTC. please what time do i set in my system when the ip address time is Sun Jul 30 2017 23:37:31 GMT-0400 (EDT)

Mr. Whoer I am using a VPN and when I run your test it shows Proxy: Yes and shows a few open ports. My question to you is this something I should be concerned with as I want a secure VPN connection that hackers can’t potentially exploit using these open ports? Have tried a few other servers with this VPN provider and all of them show up with Proxy: Yes with open ports.
Thanks for your time.

I use Express VPN in host system(win8.1), bulit-in VPN and Tor firefox-esl proxy in guest system(Kodachi, based on Debian) to access this site. I can even start VPN at the home router level, and plus access an online proxy such as vpnbook.com

please where can i set my system time to match with my location time, I have anon.. for 70%, -30% to system time, please I want to change it to 100%, I have changed my system time with time zone yet I get the same result

Hi…I connected to your site using a VPN and FireFox “incognito” browser…your rating system said that the only thing short of 100% was to disable WebRTC which I did…it then showed 100%…then, I left your site, and upon returning (still using the same VPN/browser combination) it now claims I am using a proxy instead of a VPN. I have visited your site using no less than 6 different VPNs, all highly rated, but your site always claims they are only proxies…I think you have a problem here…

Please my anonymity is at 90%. How can I round it up to 100%? All that’s left is for me is this “Open proxy ports We have determined that you work under a proxy server with a low level of anonymity.

I dunno how to go about it. I’m using Firefox, how can I open proxy ports?

My animosity is 90% sometimes 80% depending on the country IP i select, i want it to be 100% the issue is “open proxy port”, please help me on how i can fix that on my laptop, am using window 10pro Pls help me with any possible mean how how i can get it fix, thank u.

hi, please give a working solution for this time difference problem, as i change the time zone and actual time as the one on the local vpn zone but your site still only gives me 90% as the time differs and is really frustrating…thank you

Could you please help me out where to find Java on googlechrome to disable? I only see Javascript and not Java. I always get 90% anonymity due to Time constraint, i always change it to US but still shows 90%. If disabling Java will help me reach 100% please show me where to find Java to disable.

90%. Got open port problem with my VPN. Talked to Nord and they say you are not a reliable source for dnsleaks protection because you are purposefully running a proxy scanner. They said they have open ports for usage with http and socks5. They also suggest that many non vpn, and non proxy users also have open ports, that its quite common and no threat to anonymity, or the appearance of common user behavior. My question is do other sites besides yours have the technology, know how, and will to employ proxy scanners, or are you trying to steal the big guys’ vpn business, essentially, with a niche concern?

THIS IS WHAT I KEEP GETTING SO PLEASE WHAT DO I NEED TO DO NOW?

My question is why is my anonymity 90% from my one home location & then i take the exact same computer to my other home location & have 100% anonymity?… Same computer, different location, different anonymity?… I just don’t get it?… My point is… WebRTC, Javascript, Flash, Java, or ActiveX, have nothing to do with it, if i’am getting different results using the exact same computer?… Back to: Same Computer, Different Location, Different Anonymity?… I simply don’t get it?… Please explain… Thanks…
